And there is always—ALWAYS—one or a group of douches who turn the acoustic room into their practice/performance space, and they just HAVE to sing while someone records it. Do you really have to go through your entire shitty open mic night set list? And in 15 years or so of going into these stores, I’ve never once heard anyone in the electric guitars playing “Smoke on the Water” or “Stairway to Heaven” or any of the other songs that apparently are played all the time. At any rate, I bought a new guitar today.

I thought the speakers at theater were shitting the bed until I read an interview about how loud it was intended to be
